But backhauling internet-bound traffic from the branch, back to the headquarters and then out to the internet to access or web applications doesn’t work – it’s inefficient and ineffective in connecting a distributed workforce to the cloud.

And today’s workforces are more distributed and more reliant on fast connectivity and broadband than ever before.

Traffic must be sent directly (and securely) to its ultimate destination – whether applications are hosted in the cloud or the data centre.

And it’s not about deploying traditional routers based on IP subnets.

What’s needed is a software-driven WAN edge architecture that can route traffic intelligently – based on application-driven policies.

The time has come to move out of the past and keep up with the present.

The time has come to move beyond manual device-by-device configuration of traditional routers and to an advanced SD-WAN solution that consolidates foundational network functions at the branch into a single, centrally managed solution.

So, leave that traditional router in the past before you’re left behind by the competition, and get on board with the industry-leading SD-WAN solution - Silver Peak Unity EdgeConnect.
